Required Items:

Horse gram(easily get from any super market)
Crayons
Glue

It's better to describe the project item to the kids to get an idea about it, before starting the project.

Here, we need to explain about "Sunflowers" and "Horse gram"

Yes, Sunflower grows to a height of 300 centimeters or more and it tilt to face the sun during the day, then stop once it begin blooming. And it generally face east to face the sun.

Obviously, we have to explain the item "Horse gram" to the kids like what is that? & what is the uses of it?. Because in every school project, some item(it might be new to the kids) need to use. So, better we have to explain first.Then teach them to do the activity.

Really, it helps them to know it when doing the activity.

Actually, Horse gram is nothing but a type of beans. We call it as "Kollu" in tamil language. And it's commonly used in Tamilnadu dishes like kollu porial, kollu chutney, kollu sambar & kollu rasam.

Steps to decorate:

First color the sun flower picture using crayons, yellow used for petals and green used for leaf.  Refer below picture.




Then apply the glue in the center part of the flower, and paste the horse gram in circle shape. Refer below pictures.



Once it’s completed, make a border line for the flower using marker or sketch pens.
Activity is completed within 30 minutes. Please ask your child to involve on doing this. It’ll be helpful to learn lot of things and obviously it will be great fun too.
